             Bull markets are often said to climb a wall of worry, with occasional slips along the way. When bear markets rappel, there are also periodic pauses for breath. That has been the theme of late, with investors veering from relief that policymakers are taking aggressive actions to rein in inflation to fear about the effect those actions may have on economic growth.

             The VIX volatility index, which is commonly called the “fear index” because it tracks investors’ demand for a type of financial instrument that offers protection against market drops, has more than doubled in the past year, to well over 30. The index had fallen to around 15 at times during the second half of last year, its lowest level since the start of the pandemic.

              The stock market itself can be an economic concern, too.
             </span>
             In all, the drop in stocks this year has erased about $12 trillion in value from investors’ portfolios. That’s already more than the $8 trillion decline in 2008, during the most severe financial crisis in a century, although on a percentage basis the 2008 drop was bigger. Over time, the rise and fall of stocks can propel and drag the economy via something economists call the wealth effect — when people feel poorer, even if their losses are mostly on paper, they may not spend as much, denting the economy.

Investors are currently betting the VIX will end the year at just under 30, down only slightly from today, and much higher than the longer-term trend. The VIX has averaged about 20 over the past five years.

             Peter Coy: I think it’s a little soon for that. This is a family feud and the players need time to sort things out among themselves. If there is a lawsuit I’d think it would be filed by golfers, or maybe by LIV Golf. If they don’t see a reason to sue, it’s hard to see why the government would want to step in.

             Obviously there are huge differences between golf and tech but some of the underlying principles are the same. Most antitrust cases are decided based on the “rule of reason.” An organization that’s accused of anticompetitive behavior, whether it’s the PGA Tour or Google, can get out of trouble by showing that its actions are reasonable and actually benefit consumers.

             In general I agree that competition brings down prices, but in this case, the connection is hard to see. I don’t imagine that the two groups would compete by lowering the prices they charge the TV networks, tournament sponsors and so on. In fact, the competition between them is resulting in much bigger payouts to golfers. I’d expect the golfers to splash out their newfound wealth on cars and boats. This could be a weird case where competition raises inflation.
